The radio host said the stopgap measure being passed means "Trump gets nothing and the Democrats get everything, including control of the House in a few short weeks."

The deal has come under widespread criticism from conservative pundits, some of whom slammed the president for caving to Democrats on what was arguably his signature campaign promise.

"This is textbook. It’s a textbook example of what the drive-by media calls compromise," said Limbaugh on his nationally syndicated radio show.

Limbaugh also noted that the White House compromise with Democrats also strips out $1.6 billion for the wall along the U.S. southern border that was already approved by the Senate Appropriations Committee earlier this year.

"That’s gone, too. Not only is there not gonna be $5 billion, there isn’t gonna be $1.6 billion that was already allocated," he said. "So it’s an even better compromise in the minds of the drive-by media and the denizens of the swamp. Not a penny. Forget wall. Think border security."
